Hose Clamp Nut Driver

A hose clamp nut driver gets to the clamps a screwdriver cannot. The flexible shaft bends around obstructions, so a clamp buried behind a manifold or down beside an engine can be tightened properly instead of by feel with the wrong tool. Part CND1.

Key features

• Part number CND1
• Part number CND1
• Suits the 5/16 inch and 1/4 inch hex heads used on worm drive clamps
• Flexible shaft reaches clamp screws in confined spaces
• Drives the hex head on standard worm drive clamps, so the screw is turned rather than levered
• Lets you apply proper torque where a screwdriver would cam out
• Fits both installation and removal

Applications

• Engine bay coolant and heater hose clamps
• Marine engine installations with restricted access
• Plant and machinery servicing
• Any clamp fitted behind a bracket, panel or manifold

Compatibility and fitting

• Suits the hex screw head on standard worm drive clamps from the clamp range
• Drive the hex rather than the slot; the slot is what strips
• For crimp style clamps you need OTK pincer pliers instead

Why not just use a screwdriver?

Because a screwdriver in a slotted head cams out under load, which rounds the slot and leaves the clamp under tightened. Driving the hex head is the correct way to bring a worm drive clamp up to torque.
